I'm after a new phone and contract but the choice is mind boggoling, I've been on pay as you go for the last few years so totally out of touch with whats hot and whats not e.t.c. Fancy something with half decent camera on and want a decent amount of free calls and texts. Signal doesn't really seem an issue round here either and I want to spend around £25 a month.

thanks in advance, jonny

My brother has the Sony ericcisson with a 8mp caMera , quality phone my missis is getting one now.

If you hadn't said decent camera I would of reccommended iPhone, I love it had them since 1st release and the two I've had never gone wrong

Is I phone free on some networks?

You can get a v. resonable deal on a resonable phone with a lot of minutes with a cashback deal from eSave etc..

I assume most people cant be bothered with filling in forms etc

Ok, its a bit tricky to pick any phone for you, now what do you require from your phone?
Do you want to use it just for text messages and browsing the internet? or are you going to use it for other purposes like the camera, MMS, video streaming??

Networks are then personal choice, I will always point you to the one I work for but that would not be right (and blatant advertising!)

I'll google it Whats wrong with the I phone camera then? I'm not David Bailey, just want to be able to take an acceptable photo if the oportunity arises. The last phone I had on contract was a sony erricsson K800i which I think was 2 mp.

I text, ring and take photos. Anything else is uninportant! Network wise I just want best value for money

Forget anything like a smart phone you wont need one of those.
A phone that may be up your street wiht a few other functions is the Samsung M8800 Pixon, gets very good reviews now you can have a look here (other networks have a similar part to view phones) but it gives you an outlook on what you may be after phone wise

Like the look of that Tony, A 24 month contract on the online 30 would probably do me. I take it you work for vodafone

Sony Ericsson phones have fantastic cameras. It's not just the Mp count- the lenses are the best too!

I just got one of these on Wednesday after much mooching about and deliberating

Have to say they really are smart phones, packed with gadgets (most of which ill probably never use ) however the picture quality is top notch!
The phone is very well built (alot these days seem very shoddy indeed, and look like they'd fall to pieces after 3 months, never mind an 18 month contract!)
I got mind free as an upgrade with Orange for £35 inclusive of insurance (600 cross network minutes + unlimited texts) so ill never spend more than £35, which is fine by me, as i used to pay £45/50 regularly

Definatly worth a look if your after a cool touch tone phone with a good camera (8 mega pixles), pics look great on my Pc

i'm looking around at the moment as well. skypre would be useful for me, so thinking about three. anyone have any opinions on three as a provider?

James Neill

iTrader: (1)

Yeah, that's a good deal and the cashback seems to be automatic rather than having to claim on set dates. I'll try not to lose sleep over it though

Ant

Three has rubbish signal coverage few if my mates always complaining about it.

As said before Sony have the best camera's when I had my k810 it was awesome for pics in a night club the flash works brilliant alot more brighter compared to friends n95 and samsung.

STi-Frenchie

Samsung i8510, awesome phone and camera. I had a Viewty before and this thing is in a totally different league altogether. Anyone want to buy a Viewty? The i8510 can be had from Orange or O2 for £35/month

What does 'dyno' do?

richardg

ant - yes i had heard three's signal was not all that. that's one of the things that puts me off.

on the other hand , i have always had (at least for the last 10 phones or so) a sony ericsson. been very pleased with them (esp the camera side of things) and it's handy that i have soo many chargers that fit! sony ericsson apparently do phones which are compatible with skype, so i may just upgrade the phone and stick with orange for the next 12 months

the phone has its own accelerometer so it can be used for bhp runs the same as the gtec meters.
